Yeah and those links don't say that she claims she "wouldn't go to South Africa for less than $3.5 million," either. They're just saying the board putting together the festival wants her for the show.
Beyoncé is wanted for a festival that would honour 20 years of democracy in South Africa.
The 32-year-old singer could headline Dinokeng Festival in September 2014 as part of the nation's celebrations next year.
A report on the proposed event - which would take place in in the town of Cullinan - has been submitted to the Tshwane council urging them to bring over the former Destiny's Child star.
According to the Beeld newspaper, the report says: "Beyoncé has a huge number of supporters and will attract a big audience."
The event is expected to cost around 45 million rand - which is over £2.75 million - but the Halo singer's involvement could bring in the equivalent of around £489.5 million in marketing exposure, and income worth a further £12.2 million.
It shouldn't be a surprise to see Beyoncé potentially worth that much - she and Jay Z were recently named the highest earning celebrity couple in the world, worth $95 million.
Taking to the stage at the huge festival wouldn't faze the star - who has an 18-month-old daughter called Blue Ivy with her rapper husband - as she has continually shown her professionalism.
At a recent show on her Mrs Carter World Tour, Beyoncé was pullled into the crowd by a fan and - laid back as ever - she told the over-eager man that she loved him too.
